CHHS to Open New Veterinary Clinic in 2028
The Cashiers-Highlands Humane Society (CHHS) has announced plans to build and open a new veterinary clinic that will serve publicly-owned pets as well as shelter animals.
The two-story CHHS Veterinary Clinic will feature a 2,280 sq. ft. clinic on the main parking lot level, with two exam rooms, a main treatment and dental area with a lab and pharmacy, a surgical suite, a room for pre- and post-op recovery, x-ray room and isolation area. The lower level of the building is a 2,280 sq. ft. two-bedroom two-bath apartment for the veterinarian to live onsite. Currently the CHHS shelter manager and assistant shelter manager both live on campus in two of the CHHS “caretaker cottages."
